Euskaraz irakurri: PSOEk prostituzioa indargabetzeko legea proposatu du, isunekin and espetxealdiarekin
The PSOE introduced a bill in Congress this Thursday to change the Criminal Code and thus harden punish for pimp The socialist proposal seeks nice customers of prostitution. According to the text in the explanatory memorandum, “people who take refuge with women in a prostitution situation participate directly in the framework that perpetuates this grave violation of human rights.”
“These people represent the condition that prostitution can take place,” emphasizes the PSOE, before pointing out that this is why in this bill they are collecting a “criminal charge” for these people: a fine of 12 to 24 months, which the imprisonment is increased from 1 to 3 years and a fine from 24 to 48 months if the person committing the sexual act is a minor.
As the PSOE Deputy Secretary General explained at a press conference: Adriana Lastrait aims to reverse the current situation in which, in his opinion, the pimp is in a situation of “total impunity”.
According to the petitioners, Article 187.2 of the Criminal Code “does not penalize any form of obtaining profits from the prostitution of others, but rather requires that such profits must have been obtained through exploitation”, which in their view “has led to a total non-compliance with application of this regulation”.
That is why they now propose to Article 187 to punish pimp in generalwithout the need for an exploitative relationship”. For example, the new Article 187 provides for a sentence of 3 to 6 years and a fine of 18 to 24 months for anyone who uses violence, intimidation or abuse of a victim’s superiority or necessity or vulnerability. , determines a person to work or reside in prostitution.
Meanwhile, in the case of someone who for profit promotes, favors or facilitates the prostitution of another person, even with their consent, the sentences would range from 1 to 3 years and the fines between 12 and 24 months.
In the same way, the socialist initiative restores the locative third party that punishes the owners of clubs, buildings and flats where women practice prostitution.
Lastra hopes for the utmost support from parliamentary groups “beyond the crossed vetoes we saw yesterday” to enact a law to prosecute pimps, locative third parties and men who turn to prostitution and protect the women, and to end the sexual exploitation to which they are subjected.
